Doctors say that it has never been proved ‘that a man lived beyond 110 years, but Zaro Agha, the Turk, who has visited | the United States, claims he is 160. If, as} the Miami Herald says, he “started marry- ing early in life and has outlived so many } wives that he does riot remember the num- | ber of them,” it is not likely that he has kept track of the years of his existence.

There are plenty of reasons. “First is the Chinese Eastern Railway. Russia has fought to retain control of it in the past. She may fight to regain it. “Second is the Amur River, where the armies face each other. ‘Third is the fundamental’ foreign policy of each country—policies which are | aimed at domination of Asia. “Fourth—and a very important rea- son it is—Japan has not yet convinced the world that her army is under the control of | her government. “Fifth is the perennial. quarrel be- tween’ Muscovites and the descendants of the tribesmen of Yamato for exploitation of the rich fishing areas off Kamchatka. “Sixth i isa broad conflict in elvilization —in fundamental beliefs.” i But there are just as good reasons to | believe neither power wants, or will risk, a major struggle. They include: “First, the Emperor of Japan. “Second, the General Staff of the Im- perial Japanese Army, which has its hands very full in Manchuria. : “Third, the United States of America. “Fourth, the aggressive opinion of the Japanese people. “Fifth, the peculiar commercial posi- tion of both nations. “Sixth, the fact that the time is not |i", Washington ripe for either country to strike.” Mr. Vaughn adds that the question of war or no-war depends to 4 considerable extent on the attitude of the Japanese war ; lords, who are to a considerable extent in- dependent of Tokio. GRADING PRODUCTS No farmer would expect to sell at a good price a barrel filled with onions, cucumbers, turnips and potatoes all mixed together: It is almost as foolish to expect to’ get the best market price for a barrel of a single product in which all sorts are dumped without regard to sitesicolér ar. “eleathtinessy ~~ By neglecting to’ properly grade thelr produce, many farmers must sell it for much less than might be obtained for the same stuff by exercising a Jittlé care in preparing it for the market. In discussing this important phase of marketing an ex- pert says: “Quality and uniformity in ‘grains, | « fruit, cotton, potatoes, dairy and poultry products command a premium from. the buyer. A crate of large clean eggs of uni- form color will bring more in a ‘central } market than one in which small, dirty, many colored eggs are included. Dirty potatoes of mixed sizes sell poorly along- side of clean ones that have been graded.

The V-type engine knifed an Italian plane through the air at the record smashing speed of more than 420 miles per hour. On the St. Clair R: ver, the V-type engine swept to the world’s speed- boat record of 124.8 miles per hour. And that’s the type of engine that powers the Ford V-8 for 1934.
